On Embeddability of Buses in Point Sets
نویسندگان
چکیده
Set membership of points in the plane can be visualized by connecting corresponding points via graphical features, like paths, trees, polygons, ellipses. In this paper we study the bus embeddability problem (BEP): given a set of colored points we ask whether there exists a planar realization with one horizontal straight-line segment per color, called bus, such that all points with the same color are connected with vertical line segments to their bus. We present an ILP and an FPT algorithm for the general problem. For restricted versions of this problem, such as when the relative order of buses is predefined, or when a bus must be placed above all its points, we provide efficient algorithms. We show that another restricted version of the problem can be solved using 2-stack pushall sorting. On the negative side we prove the NP-completeness of a special case of BEP.

A New Method for Considering Distribution Systems in Voltage Stability Studies
In methods presented to calculate the voltage collapse point, the transmission system is usually the only part of the power system that is completely modeled. Distribution systems are often replaced by aggregate load models because the use of the detailed model of distribution systems in voltage stability analysis not only increases the computation time, but also decreases the probability of co...
متن کاملEmbeddability Properties of Difference Sets
By using nonstandard analysis, we prove embeddability properties of di↵erences A B of sets of integers. (A set A is “embeddable” into B if every finite configuration of A has shifted copies in B.) As corollaries of our main theorem, we obtain improvements of results by I.Z. Ruzsa about intersections of di↵erence sets, and of Jin’s theorem (as refined by V. Bergelson, H. Fürstenberg and B. Weiss...
متن کاملInterval fractional integrodifferential equations without singular kernel by fixed point in partially ordered sets
This work is devoted to the study of global solution for initial value problem of interval fractional integrodifferential equations involving Caputo-Fabrizio fractional derivative without singular kernel admitting only the existence of a lower solution or an upper solution. Our method is based on fixed point in partially ordered sets. In this study, we guaranty the existence of special kind of ...
متن کاملManhattan-Geodesic Embedding of Planar Graphs
In this paper, we explore a new convention for drawing graphs, the (Manhattan-) geodesic drawing convention. It requires that edges are drawn as interior-disjoint monotone chains of axis-parallel line segments, that is, as geodesics with respect to the Manhattan metric. First, we show that geodesic embeddability on the grid is equivalent to 1-bend embeddability on the grid. For the latter quest...
متن کاملPoint-Set Embeddability of 2-Colored Trees
In this paper we study bichromatic point-set embeddings of 2-colored trees on 2-colored point sets, i.e., point-set embeddings of trees (whose vertices are colored red and blue) on point sets (whose points are colored red and blue) such that each red (blue) vertex is mapped to a red (resp. blue) point. We prove that deciding whether a given 2-colored tree admits a bichromatic point-set embeddin...
